Parliament adopted a resolution on protecting EU companies, jobs and products from unfair competition by non-EU countries. The text calls for action against artificially low-priced imports caused by dumping, subsidies, overcapacity, or lower standards, which harm EU producers and consumers. It also addresses risks from non-EU online platforms and e-commerce imports that bypass EU safety and environmental rules. Parliament asks the Commission to enforce existing trade-defence instruments and ensure fair competition.

New here? How plenary voting works

A sitting: One day of voting in plenary. Each subject is a report, resolution, agreement or objection; they are grouped by kind of decision, and each group says what “adopted” means there.
The ballots: Members vote on amendments and on parts of the text first, then on the text as a whole. That final, decisive vote is the result shown at the top of each subject.
Who voted how: Only roll-call votes record each Member’s vote — open one for every name and the breakdown by group. A show of hands records the outcome only.
Document & procedure: Each subject rests on a document (a committee report, a motion, a Council or Commission text) and belongs to a procedure, the whole file that can span years.
Group badges: How most of a group voted: ✓ For · ✗ Against · – Abstained · ~ Split (no majority).
